McNabb?
c'mon, lets not go whacky

McNabb will stay in Philly because although the fans there are idiots, Reid and Co. are not.

Young QB waiting in the wings??? Matty is not panning out to be a winner...
Mcnabb? Quin? DEREK ANDERSON
This board astonishes me sometimes. Hey, let's get rid of Whiz and Leinart!
Actually, he was "given" a big chunk of last season and handed the starting job this season. The fact that he can't seem to stay healthy to take advantage of those opportunities is part of why many are concerned. Add to that the struggles that inspired the 2-headed monster this year and there's just as much negative as positive in regards to Leinart's potential/future.Matt Leinart has not been given a full season to prove himself.

McNabb is going to Chicago.
Chicago's in a tough boat and I actually feel kinda bad for Grossman. They've done everything possible to undermine that offense's potential and then laid it all on him when it didn't click. I was screaming for his replacement in the Super Bowl but if you think about, he was about the same as Leinart in terms of playing time at that point. He'd played only about a season and they didn't/don't have crapola on offense. Muhammad? Berrian? Olson looks pretty good but overall, they are built for low scores. Bringing McNabb in there is only going to make things worse. He's lucky to be in a spot now where he's got Westbrook to bail him out. Plug him into Chicago's offense and it's going to get ugly if they don't get him some more help than Benson and Muhshin.
I don't know if I'd say he was terrible but he hadn't played to a level in 2006 to warrant getting rid of Thomas Jones. He certainly hasn't displayed the ability to be an every down back. Just when he started to look decent this year he got hurt so I'm sure that will keep his stock just viable enough to be given another chance next year. Overall, I just don't know what Lovie's trying to do with the offense. It's not like you can just go out and replicate another offense but it surprises me that he isn't trying to do more of what he saw in St. Louis. I'll never understand why these teams with great defenses play down to the competition. If I had Chicago or Baltimore or whoever, I would be trying to score a lot and taking chances rather than playing scared and conservative. If you've got the great defense, why the hell wouldn't you take some shots and let the D bail you out if it doesn't work?I think that Cedric Benson is more to blame for the offense's collapse in Chicago. He's terrible.
Because Chicago doesn't have the great D this year. They're terrible against the run.If you've got the great defense, why the hell wouldn't you take some shots and let the D bail you out if it doesn't work?
